Abstract

Topical delivery of Momordica charantia (bitter melon) extract is a promising approach for anti-inflammatory and antioxidant therapy, yet the performance of the dosage form depends strongly on the composition of the formulation base. This study aimed to optimize a two-component vaseline–lanolin ointment base for M. charantia extract using a simplex lattice mixture design. Five blends spanning the binary mixture space were prepared and characterized for viscosity, spreadability, adhesiveness, and pH. Polynomial mixture models were fitted to each response, model adequacy was assessed by analysis of variance and lack-of-fit testing, and a multi-response Derringer desirability function was applied to locate a compromise optimum, which was then verified experimentally. Increasing the lanolin proportion generally increased viscosity and adhesiveness but reduced spreadability, whereas higher vaseline fractions improved spreadability while maintaining pH within a skin-compatible range. The models showed good fit and predictive utility, and the selected blend (vaseline:lanolin = 70:30) met all predefined physical criteria, with observed responses showing no significant difference from predicted values. In conclusion, simplex lattice optimization efficiently guided the vaseline–lanolin ratio toward a base with favorable rheological properties, providing a useful and reproducible platform for incorporating M. charantia extract in future efficacy and stability studies.

Abstract

Chronic inflammation contributes to a wide range of diseases, driving the need for novel anti-inflammatory agents with minimal side effects. The NACHT domain of NLRP3 mediates ATP-dependent inflammasome assembly and represents a validated target for anti-inflammatory therapy. This study aimed to predict and compare the binding interactions of twenty-two cucurbitacin variants against the NACHT domain using molecular docking, following geometry optimization with Density Functional Theory (B3LYP/6-31G(d)). Docking validation reproduced the native ligand pose with an RMSD of 0.87 angstrom. Among all variants tested, 11-deoxycucurbitacin I showed the most favorable predicted binding energy (-7.38 kcal/mol), sharing several interacting residues with the native ligand RM5, including Ala227, Ala228, Pro352, Ile411, Phe575, and Met661, although its predicted affinity remained weaker than that of RM5 (-10.35 kcal/mol). These shared contacts suggest that 11-deoxycucurbitacin I may engage a similar region of the NACHT inhibitor-binding pocket as RM5. In conclusion, 11-deoxycucurbitacin I is identified as the most favorable predicted binder among the cucurbitacin variants tested toward the NACHT domain, representing a candidate warranting further experimental validation.
